We Have Seen the Enemy and He is Us!

We Have Seen the Enemy and He is Us!

We seriously are own worst enemy!

There is absolutely nothing more harmful to Americans and our way of life than our own complacency and refusal to pay attention to how our elected officials vote on very important issues and how they are allowing untold thousands of restricting and strangulating taxes, laws and regulations being foisted upon us and our precious lifeblood businesses who must competitively make a profit in order to hire employees who with the businesses themselves are the roots of all our sources of taxation. How can a country of, by and for the people be just that if the people themselves ignore their responsibilities and entrust others to do as they say they will and follow their oaths to our Constitution when in fact they are so far in violation of that public trust and that sacred oath.

So that’s the simple truth about why we have the sorry state of affairs in our government that we do today. We are solely responsible for the government we have been getting because we have been too trusting, flat out un-involved and utterly clueless about how the establishment and lobbyist led folks we’ve elected do what they wish, which generally hasn’t had that much to do with what they should be doing for us and our Constitution.

WHAT WE MUST DO!

There’s a very simple way of identifying which elected representatives need replacing in our Idaho statehouse and in Congress in Washington. You study The Freedom Indexes for both bodies which shows exactly how they vote with criteria in keeping with the Constitution and then cull them at the voting box. Here in Idaho The Freedom Index is published by IdahoFreedomIndex.com by ‘The Idaho Freedom Foundation.’

For the U.S. Congress see “The Freedom Index at JBS.org: A Congressional Scorecard Based on the U.S. Constitution” rates congressmen based on their adherence to constitutional principles of limited government, fiscal responsibility, national sovereignty, and a traditional foreign policy of avoiding foreign entanglements. In this second 6 month session of the 114th Congress just completed on January 25th, here is how abysmally our congressmen and senators in Washington, D.C. voted with the Constitution: U.S. House 44% and U.S. Senate 47%. So there you see now why we are where we are.

Don’t count on a thing politicians say, only believe what you see and judge them on how they vote!

The terrible voting records revealed in the two The Freedom Indexes, is exactly the explanation for why we are rapidly becoming a socialistic society and our Republic is in danger of evolving into losing our national sovereignty and becoming first a member state of a regional government like a North American Union or Trans Pacific Union overseen by the corrupt UN, and then on to a world government run by unaccountable, unelected global power elitists who know what’s best for us about everything. Goodbye to America’s freedom and justice for all.
